Official description

The Collegiate ComFiTec headcollar offers a stylish leather headcollar with leather padding under the nose, crown and cheek straps for a luxurious and comfortable fit. Anatomically shaped headpiece evenly distributed pressure across the poll for comfort.

First impressions

I liked the style of this headcollar — it was subtle with no branding and it looked really smart. Parts of the headcollar look like leather but aren’t, which isn’t a bad thing as I think it helps keep the price down and maintain good value.

Overview of performance

It had a lovely headpiece with padding almost like a poll guard. It’s not a traditional shape, but I thought it looked kind and the horses seemed happy in it. I have used this headcollar a lot for travelling and will definitely continue to do so. 

Sam’s likes and dislikes

I’m not surprised that this was the most expensive headcollar I tested as there is great detail in the headpiece, but I would say this definitely makes it worth the money.
